Chapter 444 Completed

"Okay."

Waving his hand, Li Chen said, "This time it is for your contributions and hard work over the years, but the tax matter is still on the account. Don't think that this palace will no longer care about it."

"The capital is different from Weihaiwei. You can think with your toes that the complexity of the capital is far more than that of Weihaiwei. Giving you this opportunity is a gift and a disaster, but what it is depends on your ability."

"If you don't match your position, then you have to bear the consequences yourself."

Zheng Baorong was still immersed in the great joy of promotion. He could not hear these at this moment. He just kept saying: "Don't worry, your highness, I will definitely be confused by your highness, and you will die."

"I hope."

After Li Chen finished speaking, he stood up and said to Mr. Mirror: "When Weihaiwei delayed these times, it's time for me to go back."

Mr. Mirror bowed and said, "I...I am old minister, I respectfully send you to Your Highness."

“No need.”

Li Chen was very satisfied with Mr. Mirror's claim. He smiled and said, "I don't like these red tapes. It's better to be more free. After I go back, I will issue an imperial edict immediately. At that time, I will wait in the capital."

Mr. Mirror said frankly: "The old minister must come as soon as possible."

Nodded, Li Chen glanced at Zheng Baorong and said, "I will give you a few days to clear the handover. The position of the prefect of the capital will be vacated immediately. That position is important and it is related to all the people's livelihood under the emperor's feet. Don't be late."

In fact, Zheng Baorong, who wished he could fly to the capital immediately, hurriedly replied: "I dare not be negligent. After packing up my family, I will immediately go to the capital."

“Okay.”

Li Chen nodded and suddenly remembered something, he said: "When I came, I promised the fishermen that the tax will be explained. From now on, all the various categories of taxes you have added to ordinary people will be cancelled."

Zheng Baorong nodded and said, "Yes, I will execute it immediately when I go back."

Li Chen glanced at Zheng Baorong and decided to give a note. He said, "Your idea is good, but you also have to consider the actual situation."

"Now, people and fishermen live a difficult life. Although many of your decrees are for the good environment, you have also said that the people are short-sighted. They only see what is in front of them, but they will not think about the long-term."

"Since that's the case, why do you have to let them feel that you are staring at the grains of rice in their rice jar?"

"Sometimes the same decree is gentler. Don't think about getting it done in one step. Boiling frogs with warm water will moisten things silently. The negative impact will be much smaller, and the effect you want to achieve will not be much worse. Think about it carefully."

After saying that, Li Chen waved his hand and said, "Let's go back to Beijing."

The situation in the capital is turbulent, and something that Li Chen must handle in person at any time may occur, so Li Chen cannot leave the East Palace for a long time.

Whether it is Mr. Jingzhi or Zheng Baorong, it will take several days to hand over, and it will be given time to let Li Chen go back first to announce the news and give the order appropriate order.

After leaving Guanhai Academy, Li Chen took Su Jinpa onto the carriage. Under the strict protection of the Jinyiwei, the convoy galloped towards the capital.

As soon as Li Chen left, Zheng Baorong looked at Mr. Jingzhi and wanted to speak but stopped.

"I haven't congratulated Lord Zheng for being promoted in disguise." Mr. Jingzhi bowed and said.
